Ginna Dix, wife of “Maine Cabin Masters” star Matt “Dixie” Dix, died unexpectedly over the weekend at age 48.
The renovation reality show, which airs on the Magnolia Network, announced Dix’s passing Wednesday on its Instagram page.
“We are heartbroken to announce the unexpected passing of Ginna Dix on February 1, 2025,” the notice read. “Beloved wife of Dixie, God Daughter to Ryan’s parents, and friend to so many. Ginna was a huge part of the Maine Cabin Masters family and will be missed tremendously. We thank you all for your love and support, but ask that you give the Maine Cabin Masters team privacy at this time.”
“Maine Cabin Masters” follows the work of Manchester, Maine-based Kennebec Cabin Company as its builders renovate rustic camps and cabins around the state.
According to her obituary, Ginna Dix was born in Augusta, graduated from Gardiner Area High School, studied nursing at St Anselm College in Goffstown, New Hampshire, and met her future husband, Matt Dix, the year after she graduated.
She worked at Waldo County Hospital in Belfast as a registered nurse for several years, and after receiving her master’s degree at Purdue University, became a nurse practitioner at the Harold Alfond Center and Maine Health Franklin Memorial Hospital in Farmington.
She died “at Maine Medical Center in Portland with her family by her side.”
